Nick Cellini & Steak Shapiro have always grated on my nerves. Back in the day I used to like Chris Dimino's show, but those 3 together were just obnoxious.

There wasn't a drop of funny in their bit. That enough is reason to fire them.

These guys have been beyond hacks for literally decades. I am eagerly awating the day that Steak Shapiro takes my order at Goldbergs.

Fuck Steak Shapiro, fuck him hard.
This was a disgusting bit, but there's literally thousands of reasons to have fired him long before this. What an absolute ignorant hack.

I am fo real!
Steak and Nick are bafoons. Hacks. Chris Dimino knows sports and can talk shop. I am certain he was not the mastermind behind this stupid bit, but he should have known better. The other two got what they should have got long ago.

If you listen, you can hear Dimino was very reluctant to participate and hardly said a word. I disagree with the decision to fire Dimino.

Dimino also had an apology on FB that seemed very heartfelt. That said, I don't think you can fire 2 and not the 3rd...they're a team and if Dimino felt strongly against it, he should have stood up during the planning meeting and talked them into nixing the idea.

And by planning meeting you mean bagels, head shining and testosterone under-arm treatment.

Were you in charge of cleaning up the conference room that day?
I've been a 790 listener since 99 and this was the exact right thing to do.
Will miss the show but this was inexcusable. Dimino should be hired right away, dude knows his baseball.
Let Steakie go do his faux foodie thing and I think we'll eventually hear that Nick murdered his entire family ala Benoit.

I just hope that someone hires Mike Bell, he's hysterical. Put him on the morning show on 680 and you might have something.
Otherwise, Atlanta sports talk radio just blows goats. Except for over night on 92.9 the Fan, esp Jim Murray. That guy is fantastic and knows his shit.

This. You wonder when they were writing this bit why no one told them it was not the least bit funny.

Good. That's some bullshit.
They think you're a bald obnoxious person? (they are way off, you aren't that bald)
